This was fairly late in a $10 buy in tournament. 1st place was a whopping $648, I play .50/1 ring games or 5/.50 sit n gos normally. So that prize is ALOT for me. Had I held my ground I would have been either close to or the chip leader with excellent chances to finish high.

Big stack was bullying people around big time but how can you possibly cold call in that position? Did I make the right call and am second guessing based on results, or do I have to make a move to counter the big stack bully tactics?
This hand hasn't put me on long term tilt, although I did bust out the tourney on a set of twos against a set of jacks in a pot that I stayed in longer than normal because of this hand.
